Trapped Chilean Miners get PSPs

This is very cool - hopefully they sent them some movies and other things too (either on UMD or memory stick).

Of course the Kotaku comments are full of the predictable fanboyism and jokey responses - "They should have sent a DS instead" or "I hope they didn't send them Cave Story, Mr. Driller, Dig Dug, Breakout etc. etc."

So if you were trapped in a hole in the ground for four months and only had a PSP to play (presumably non-networked and unmodded), what would you do with it?

PSP has a nice selection of retro collections, eh? I'd opt some Capcom comps and shmups baby.

4 months is quite a long time, the psp has a nice selection of jrpgs- I would stick with those- but that would really suck, hope they make it out ok

H.E.R.O. Was that on Activision Anthology for PSP? It's all about a guy with a helicopter backpack descending into dark caves and rescuing people.

They should have sent a ZX Spectrum down with Manic Miner.

Seriously, how are they going to charge their PSPs up after 4 hours of gaming?

Emulated: Spelunker, Miner 2049er and Rockford.

I think there is AC power down there, from generators or cabled in.
